Ashmark Roofing

Ashmark re-covered our flat roof (on a small block of shared freehold flats) 26 years ago, so they were a top contender to do the same again when, after many trouble free years, we started getting some leaks in the recent very wet winter. We had already decided some time back that, once we started to get any problems, we would go for complete renewal and would add insulation. Comparative quotes showed their price to be the local rate for the job. The two workers (the senior of whom had been the assistant on the previous occasion) were pleasant, helpful and ready to answer any questions arising in the course of the job. Disturbance to residents was minimal and, when a detail needed to be changed in a way which reduced time and material needed, they promptly reduced their price without our needing to request this. All was completed in the predicted timescale. The site was kept clean for the duration of the work and all rubbish was cleared and scaffolding removed a few days after completion. As Secretary of the flats management company I was their main contact. A 10 years guarantee has been provided.

Ashmark Roofing replaced the surface to the flat roof of our garage. They were very thorough and worked very hard. They were very friendly and we were happy with the work done. Would definitely recommend them.

After moving into our house we contacted Ashmark Roofing about some much needed gutter repairs and chimney re-pointing / capping. Tony was sent round to assess the work required and gave us an honest assessment of what was required with no hint of trying to oversell things. When it came to doing the work everything was completed on time and the price was exactly as quoted. The work was done in a friendly and efficient manner. If there are two more experienced and competent roofers than Tony and Mick then I’d like to meet them - we were very happy with our experience

I used Ashmark Roofing, based in London N21 to sort out a persistent problem that I was experiencing with a downpipe on my two storey house. It was one of those jobs that you put off and put off, but everytime there was some moderate to heavy rain the downpipe would not do its job and water would spill down the wall. No signs of damp problems, but rather than face costly remedial work I asked Ashmark to provide a quote. They charged £432 and did the work within a few days. Now the downpipe and guttering works well.

Removal of defective apron flashings at the base of two dormers and replace with code 4 lead, cut and lapped to appropriate lengths and dressed over tiles of pitched roof. This first required careful removal of the bottom course of tiles for each dormer and subsequent replacement of said tiles. The work was carried out to an agreed schedule and at cost specified in the quotation. The trader worked from scaffolding at roof level for two days in direct hot sun. Communications with the trader by phone and email were satisfactory.

I first used Ashmark Roofing about 10 years ago to replace and renew the flat roofing on my garden shed. The work was done by Paul and an assistant. They explained what they were doing and were polite and tidied up thoroughly. There have been no problems since, and the guarantee has run out. Since then I have used Ashmark Roofing a few times with problems relating to guttering on my conservatory roof and elsewhere which they resolved. Last summer the ground floor extension to my semi-detached house developed a leak and here this took some time to resolve. The man who came to fix it also called Tony couldn't pin-point the source of the leak despite 2 or 3 attempts. So the proprietor Tony Hewett sent somebody else called Steve who came over and straight away identified the source of the problem. He did the work at the beginning of May 2024 and there have been no more leaks. He was friendly and polite and I wish he had come over at the onset The original job was done about 6 month earlier but it took this long because I didn't want anyone coming over when it was raining and there has been a lot of that. The proprietor Tony Hewett is a man of principle and good ethics and he is not satisfied if his customer isn't.

Steve and Paul repaired my roof. They were punctual, hard-working, reliable and pleasant to deal with. They dealt with any problems in a helpful manner and kept me informed about what was going on. They discussed the various possibilities clearly. They kept to the schedule and quotation.

Ashmark replaced an old, leaking flat roof above a bay window and from start to finish both their communications and the work carried out were refreshingly professional and efficient. Tony always responded promptly to emails and phone calls and Paul and Brad, the team who did the work, were prompt, courteous and did and excellent job. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

We had damp in an upstairs bedroom from previously blocked and overflowing gutters. We also had a leaky lean-to roof. Tony came round and took a good look before arranging a very reasonable quote. Tony and Mick worked really hard for us on the day, sorting out the gutter, doing pointing on the chimney and sorting out the "fillet" between the extension and main building, as well as adding eaves carriers where needed and re-taping the lean-to roof. All these jobs took a little longer than expected, but they completed the work without complaint or extra charge and they only stopped once for a break and a cup of tea. It was a pleasure having them around - real old school gents and they take pride in their work, are experienced, and know what they are doing. The lean-to is nice and dry again and hopefully the wall upstairs will now dry out completely so we can re-decorate. Thank you too for brilliant communication and pleasant chats throughout. I will definitely call on Ashmark Roofing again when I need them. - Oh, and, by the way, they also predicted the weather better than the Met Office did! :-)

After 2 previous attempts by different roofing companies to fix a longstanding issue with our back roof without success (one company making the problem much worse) Ashmark Roofing have succeeded! Tony's communication by phone and email has been excellent throughout both in relation to the roof itself and the scaffolding required. Steve was excellent in carrying out the work, which ultimately differed to that quoted. This was due to his logical troubleshooting and altering the repair that was required accordingly. Overall I am very pleased with the company's service, communication and cost of the work. Thank you!
